NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two ways cell division can happen in humans and most other animals, called mitosis and meiosis. When a cell divides by way of mitosis, it produces two clones of itself, each with the same number of chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Permanent cells are cells that are incapable of regeneration. These cells are considered to be terminally differentiated and non-proliferative in postnatal life. This includes neurons, heart cells, skeletal muscle cells and red blood cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cells need to divide for your body to grow and for body tissue such as skin to continuously renew itself. When a cell divides, the outer membrane increasingly pinches inward until the new cells that are forming separate from each other. This process typically produces two new (daughter) cells from one (parent) cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -One of Gorospe team’s research focus areas is cellular senescence, a natural state of permanent cell cycle arrest reached when cells stop dividing, usually after 50 or so divisions. Cellular senescence was discovered four decades ago, but scientists still don’t fully understand why it happens.
